Experimental tagging interface instructions

Start introducing your tags by clicking on the dashed input box. Press 'space' or 'enter' to introduce a new tag. Click on the 'minus' icon next to each introduced tag to remove it from the list.

The tags you assign to your sounds can also have tag categories. Tags that have categories consist of a category name and a tag:

The category name must be choosen from a list of tag categories that you'll find below your introduced tags, but the tag in itself can be any textual label you want, just like normal tags.

Add a tag with a category by clicking on a category name from the list. A popover will appear with a description of the kind of information that a tag under the selected category should describe about your sound, and with a list of recommended tags for the selected category.

Once you have introduced a tag with a category, you can add more tags to that category by clicking on the 'plus' icon next to the category name.

Using tag categories, your descriptions will become more accurate and your sounds more easily findable and reusable by other Freesound users. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to use them. However, you do not need to introduce all of your tags under a tag category, there might be some cases in which there are no suitable categories for your tags.
